Cheap Cell Phone Minutes: Get A Prepaid T-Mobile Cell Phone Plan

This article is for people who are interested in cheap cell phone minutes using prepaid cell phone plans. If you use more then 500 minutes a month this article will not be of much use to you. If you use less then 500 minutes a month, this article could save you hundreds a year in cell phone bills.

There was only one type of plan that was great enough in perks that I would switch from a T-mobile prepaid plan to a contract plan. It's called a Sprint SERO plan and since it's not available anymore, I can't help you with that. What I can do is give you the tips to save hundreds a year using a T-Mobile prepaid cell phone the same way I used to.

There are two T-Mobile Prepaid plans available. Pay By The Day and Pay As You Go. If the majority of your phone calls are to other T-mobile phones and you don't mind pay an additional $1 per day you use your phone, Pay By The Day might be for you. If you are just looking for a pre-paid without extra daily charges and your phone usage is less then 400 minutes a month. Pay As You Go also known as T-Mobile To GO, is going to be the very best pre-paid cell phone plan.

T-Mobile prepaid pay as you go plan is just as good as the next plan if you are buying minutes in small quantities. If you are able to buy minutes in $100 increments, this is the best plan available.

T-Mobile To Go (pay as you go) offers 1000 minutes for $100. That's 10 cents a minute. Plus, when you have purchased at least $100 worth of minutes, all minutes from that point on will carry an expiration date of one year. Everytime you add more minutes to your card, all prepaid minutes still left in your balance will also be pushed an additional year.

If you use 200 minutes a month, its $20 and you minutes will last 5 months. This is an awesome deal if your cell phone usage is low. So how do you get started?

Your going to need either a Tmobile phone, or an unlocked GSM phone. If you don't know if your old phone is unlocked, its probably not. The cheapest way to get a T-mobile phone to use on the Pay As You Go prepaid plan is to ask a friend for their old T-Mobile phone. Any TMobile phone will work for this.

If you can't find someone who has an Tmobile phone they aren't using, then your gonna need to buy one. For people with small minute usage who don't text, you don't need to spend alot of a phone.
